What level of service should I expect from a handyman near me?

A local handyman should provide a clear estimate before starting any work, bring the tools and materials needed for the job, and complete tasks efficiently while maintaining a tidy workspace. They should leave your home in good order with repairs or installations finished to a high standard.

Should I ask to see examples of a handyman’s previous work?

Yes. It’s helpful to see photos of past projects such as furniture assembly, wall mounting, or home repairs to get a sense of their workmanship. Many handymen show examples of completed jobs on their MyBuilder profiles to give you confidence in the results.

What types of jobs can a handyman help with?

Local handymen often take on a wide range of domestic tasks, including putting up shelves, mounting TVs, assembling flat-pack furniture, fixing doors or locks, and completing small painting or maintenance jobs. If you’re unsure, describe your project when posting your job. Many handymen can handle multiple types of work.

How should I prepare before a handyman arrives?

Clear the space where the work will take place and make sure any fixtures or items that might get in the way are moved. If materials or fittings are required, confirm whether you or the handyman will supply them beforehand to avoid delays.

What should I check before hiring a handyman?

Before choosing handyman services near you, review profile information on MyBuilder, including job history and feedback from other customers. Make sure to confirm details like cost, duration, and what’s included in the service to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Handyman- 1 Aug 2023
Cris is without doubt the best, most conscientious builder I have had work for me in all my years. This is the first time I have ever had to pay a builder more than he asked for as I felt he was too cheap. The job of fitting my awning was amazing and his knowledge / advice and work were impeccable. I know he is new to My Builder but hopefully I can continue to use him as after everyone else sees his work I will struggle to get him to do there jobs. This is a genuine review and trust me when I say you should hire this guy

Fascias & Soffits- 11 Nov 2023
I had Andy, from Nutgrove Windows come and do a complicated repair to my roof and the soffit. Prior to arrival, he made an appointment to give me a quote. He arrived on time, gave me a verbal quote and said I could make my decision after he'd sent me a written quote. When he was due to do the job, he rang on two occasions prior to the day because we were having very bad weather. He arranged to arrive earlier on the appointed day - with the aim of completing the job before the rain came. He called me out to explain what he was doing on two occasions whilst completing the job. Once finished, I was very impressed with the quality of the work. It's also worth noting that they were extremely organised and very clean and tidy workmen. Afterwards, there was no sign that they had ever been on the property - except for the very professional work which they had completed - to a very high standard. I am absolutely delighted with the whole process - including the finished job. I would definitely recommend this company very highly to anyone wanting a reliable, conscious tradesman who really knows what he is doing. Thanks very much guys 👍
